Overdrafts: Linked Accounts and Regulation D - Part 1

Regulation D limits the number of withdrawals from a savings account to six per month. This includes any withdrawals/transfers to cover overdrafts in a checking account. And, this is a combined six per month. So, if a member were to make two other "Reg D" withdrawals in a given month, the member would only have four left for transfers to the checking account to cover overdrafts.  ****Read More; http://bit.ly/ylX83D

NCUA Reports Continued Credit Union Loan Growth in First Quarter of 2016

"ALEXANDRIA, Va. (June 3, 2016) – Credit unions continued to increase their lending, with loans outstanding increasing 10.7 percent in the year ending in the first quarter of 2016, the National Credit Union Administration reported today.  “The credit union system again experienced solid performance during the first quarter of 2016,” NCUA Board Chairman Rick Metsger said. “Overall, new and used auto lending was especially strong, and the system gained one million members. With an influx of deposits, federally insured shares at credit unions also neared the $1 trillion mark coming in at $991.7 billion.  “As credit union lending has increased, long-term investments have declined and reduced the system’s interest rate risk. However, delinquency and charge-off rates are slightly higher than a year ago, and member-business loan delinquencies are rising even more. Credit unions making such loans should take note and ensure that they perform proper due diligence to mitigate the r...

NCUA Letter to Credit Unions: Interagency Statement on LIBOR Transition

Dear Boards of Directors and Chief Executive Officers: As a follow-up to Letter to Credit Unions 21-CU-03, LIBOR Transition , this letter provides additional reminders related to LIBOR’s discontinuance. Five federal financial institution regulatory agencies, in conjunction with the state bank and state credit union regulators, are jointly issuing the enclosed statement to emphasize the expectation that supervised institutions with LIBOR exposure will continue to progress toward an orderly transition away from LIBOR. [1] The NCUA encourages all federally insured credit unions to transition away from using U.S. dollar LIBOR as a reference rate as soon as possible, but no later than December 31, 2021, and to ensure existing contracts have robust fallback language that includes a clearly defined alternative reference rate. Please contact your NCUA Regional Office or state supervisory authority if you have any questions about this important topic. Read the Letter to Credit Unions   Sav...

CEO Compensation-Approach and Impact by DeeDee Myers

Numerous CEO shifts this year directly impact potentially outdated compensation philosophies related to creating a rewards package to retain and reward a newly hired or promoted CEO. Unfortunately, CEOs are often unsure of their performance metrics, short-term incentives, long-term incentives, and retirement package a year or more after they assume a CEO role. The impact is a lack of clarity on success factors between the Board and CEO, which inevitably transfers and translates to a less-than-adequate clarity of priorities and actions within the executive and management ranks.

Trump Administration Declares CFPB Funding Illegal, Bureau’s Cash To Run Out By Early 2026

WASHINGTON—Credit-unions face a potential regulatory vacuum as the Trump Administration formally has determined the CFPB’s current self-funding mechanism unlawful—a move that could put the agency on a path to closure in early 2026 unless Congress steps in. For credit-union leaders, who rely on the Bureau’s oversight of consumer-finance markets and enforcement of unfair practices, the decision signals a major disruption to the regulatory environment CUs navigate daily. In a court filing released late Monday, the Administration declared that the CFPB is now legally barred from seeking additional funds from the Federal Reserve System—the agency’s usual funding source under the Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, POLITICO reported. That means the Bureau’s remaining resources will likely carry it only through the end of the year, after which it “anticipates exhausting its currently available funds in early 2026.” CUToday.info has tracked this story, noting in  Oct...

Inflation Eases a Bit in New CPI Data; Here's What CU Economist Says

WASHINGTON–Inflation eased just a bit in April with the  Consumer Price Index  slowing to its lowest level since early 2021.  Dawit Kebede According to the new data from the Labor Department, in April the CPI, which excludes food and energy items, was up 3.6% annually. That would seem to indicate the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise rates quickly and then hold them there is having its effect, albeit inflation is being tamed at a slower pace than may had expected. “Headline and core inflation slowed down a bit in April after hot readings during the first quarter,” said America's Credit Unions Senior Economist Dawit Kebede. “Volatile energy a...

Current Geopolitical Events Increase Likelihood of Imminent Cyberattacks on Financial Institutions

Current Geopolitical Events Increase Likelihood of Imminent Cyberattacks on Financial Institutions Financial Institutions, Large and Small, Included in Potential Targets to U.S. Critical Infrastructure The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has recently issued two alerts addressing risks from Russian State-Sponsored cyber threats and highlighting recent malicious cyber incidents suffered by public and private entities in Ukraine . Given current geopolitical events, the NCUA, along with CISA, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the National Security Agency encourage credit unions of all sizes and their cybersecurity teams nationwide to adopt a heightened state of awareness and to conduct proactive threat hunting. In addition, COVID-related supply chain disruptions may require management to reevaluate previously held assumptions for business continuity and disaster recovery pla...

NCUA Board Member Rodney E. Hood Remarks at the National Council of Firefighters Credit Unions (NCOFCU)

NCUA Director addresses NCOFCU attendees in Fort Worth TX.     Thank you very much for the kind introduction. It’s a pleasure to join you today, and I’m especially delighted that conditions are so much improved that we’re able to gather in person. After what we’ve been through the last year and a half, I think we’re all ready for a gradual return to a more normal footing, even if we still have some way to go to reach that point. I spend a lot of time studying what credit unions are doing, and one of the best parts of this job is that I’m regularly reminded of how powerful the credit union model can be for making a difference in our communities. This initiative is a true testament to the strength of that model. I certainly look forward to checking in on the progress of this program so we can see how it works – it looks like a promising experiment.  Read his complete p...

TruStage Economic Projections for 2026 - Steve Rick

MADISON, Wis.– Noting it’s “that time a year to make economic projections for 2026,”   TruStage’s   economists are offering their preview for what they believe lies ahead. “We expect real GDP to expand 1.5% in 2026, below the 1.8% pace for 2025, and lower than the 2% long run trend growth rate,” wrote the company’s chief economist, Steve Rick, in TruStage’s newest Trends Report. “Growth will be slightly weaker than normal due to tariff policy uncertainty, restrictive monetary policy and slower labor force growth.” The report states that inflation is expected to be 3% in 2026, only falling slightly from the 3.1% pace this year. “We expect inflation to run above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target as firms pass through any additional tariff costs and the slow growth in labor force will keep upward pressure on wage growth,” the report observes. “This stubbornly high inflation will ensure monetary policy stays restrictive for most of 2026.” The Trends Report notes that the unemploymen...

What to Know About EV Lending

  By Ray Birch WEST WINDSOR TOWNSHIP, N.J.—There are a couple of important facts credit unions must keep in mind as they increasingly make loans for electric vehicles (EVs). The first is that while EVs are perceived to be more economical than internal combustion engine (ICE)-powered vehicles, one new report suggests that while electric vehicles are cheaper to operate, the overall savings may not be as significant as many people think. Moreover, as EVs become the dominant form of transportation, prices for charging—even at home—will begin to rise just like gas prices, one automotive industry expert is predicting. Sumit Chauhan, co- founder and COO at Cerebrum X, which provides AI-driven automotive data services and a management platform, s...

Fed Governor Warns ‘Global Stablecoin Glut’ Could Reshape Monetary Policy

  NEW YORK—Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran believes the rapid rise of stablecoins could become a major force shaping U.S. monetary policy. Once seen as a niche digital tool for crypto traders, stablecoins have evolved into a global conduit for dollar-denominated transactions, enabling users worldwide to store value and move capital more efficiently. Their growing prominence, Miran noted during his speech at the BCVC Summit 2025 at the Harvard Club, reflects continued demand for dollars—and with the GENIUS Act now providing a clear regulatory framework for U.S.-issued stablecoins, the sector is poised for broader adoption across payment systems. Stephen Miran Stablecoins’ link to the U.S. dollar is reinforcing the currency’s global dominance while simultaneously creating new implications for monetary policy. Miran argued that stablecoins are already increasing demand for U.S. Treasury bills and other dollar-based assets, especially from investors outside the United States. Th...
